Abstract:Adsorption is a rapid and known method to treat wastewater and remove contaminants such as ammonia (NH3+) and nitrogen derivatives. Herein, novel adsorption materials are demonstrated to eliminate the most hazard industrial and municipal contaminants including ammonia and nitrogen derivatives. Oxide glasses as new adsorbing media are beneficial for wastewater treatment due to dangling bond defects and non-bridging oxygen, which act as adsorption centers. Oxide glasses are characterized by their low cost and si… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
